Job

I figured I'd give you a break from lousy iPhone photos and fill you in on my job situation. As I mentioned, I had a month off from work after being laid off by Microsoft, which was fantastic. As my boss was planning a new company, doing the same thing, with most of the same people, there was no real stress.

The new company has started now, but without an office. We had a meeting or two at my boss's house out in the sticks, where half of our crew are now working, but the rest of us are working from home. I had to buy a new computer and assemble it from scratch as the first order of business (not without a few headaches).

I don't much like working from home. I'm getting some stuff done but it's too easy to be distracted, and too hard to get the information you need sometimes when you can't just walk over to a coworker's desk. I'm spending the mornings with the dog sitting by my chair but have been putting her out back around lunchtime when she gets antsy and then spend the rest of the day trying not to get noticed by her in the house (if she thinks I've come home, she gets overexcited).

Anyway, all of us working on this project think it has the potential to be big, so we're all willing to work hard and put up with some bumps.
